Last night I was filpping channels between watching the Illinois state basketball finals and watching the Chicago Bulls lose to the LA Lakers after giving up 27 points off of  turnovers to LA. My Bulls couldn't handle the defensive pressure but the story last night was the high school game.
Michael Jordan sends his son to Whitney Young which is a public high school in the city of Chicago. Young has some of the better sports teams in the area along with academics and last night they won the IL state 4 A title.
PEORIA, Ill. - Michael Jordan celebrated another Chicago basketball championship - his son's.
Marcus Jordan, son of the Bulls' six-time champion, scored a game-high 19 points to lead Chicago Whitney Young to a 69-66 victory over Waukegan in the Illinois Class 4A championship Saturday.
As Marcus Jordan and his teammates celebrated on the court after the final buzzer, Michael Jordan stood quietly, clapping his hands with tears in his eyes.
